Description
The Yato YT-828377 is a ready-to-use cordless pruning shears set that includes a 2.0 Ah Li-Ion battery and a fast charger in addition to the tool itself. These 18V shears are designed for demanding, continuous branch cutting and use an efficient brushless motor. The motor technology allows a high cutting speed of up to 60 cuts per minute (one cut per second), which speeds up work significantly compared with manual shears.
The cutting blades are made of durable SK5 tool steel. The rounded blade profile ensures a clean cut. The shears’ maximum cutting capacity is 30 mm for green wood and 25 mm for dry branches. Attention has been paid to the tool’s ergonomics: it is balanced and has a padded handle (soft grip). The compact size (approx. 305 mm long) and low weight (approx. 0.97 kg without battery) make it easier to work among dense branches and reduce strain on the user.
To improve safety and energy efficiency, the device has an automatic sleep mode. If the shears are not used for 30 seconds, they switch to power-saving mode. To reactivate them, hold the trigger down for 5 seconds. The integrated LED work light illuminates the cutting point. The 2.0 Ah battery supplied charges in about an hour with the fast charger and has a charge indicator.
